fletcher57 Posted December 17, 2010 #1 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Hi, I'm in the beginning stages of planning a cruise or cruise tour to Alaska. The person I've been talking to who seems very anxious to go now wants to invite her daughter. So there would be three adult women in one cabin. So it sounds as though we would want a suite balcony or mini-suite with balcony. Has anybody slept in one of the sofa beds in one of these suites? Any comments re comfort? Any other comments about three people to a suite? Thanks. Joyce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycruz Posted December 17, 2010 #2 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I've slept on a couple, not that comfortable unfortunately! The upside, you are on a cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted December 17, 2010 #3 Share Posted December 17, 2010 If the sofa bed is not up to the comfort standards, you can ask for a foam mattress pad or two to be put on it each evening when it is made up. It does help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dottiedef Posted December 17, 2010 #4 Share Posted December 17, 2010 We had a mini on the Grand in Oct and our adult son slept on the sofa. He is 6 feet tall and told us he thought it was not bad at all. It flips over and they make it up like a bed. Granted it is not the same as your bed at home but none of them are!!! We found the bed in the mini to be very comfortable. Think the mattresses are an upgrade. We did not even need the egg crate and we have always gotten them in the regular double rooms. He loved the fact that he had his own tv too. Really worked out great. Good cruising!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gertz Posted December 17, 2010 #5 Share Posted December 17, 2010 In one word. TERRABLE. If you get one make sure you get a cabin for 4 so the bed will come out of the ceiling and think the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loonbeam Posted December 18, 2010 #6 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I used one one night when I wasn't feeling well. It's about as comfortable as any sleeper sofa. Not the worst place to sleep, and an extra foam mattress will help a lot. Or as noted, some cabins sleep 3 adults with a pulldown bed and 2 twin configuration (that would be my first choice if avail). That said, if the third person is petite, they may consider sleeping on it in sofa mode. I catnapped on one all the time and its quite comfy that way!

skyline Posted December 18, 2010 #7 Share Posted December 18, 2010 My best friend, her husband and I shared a mini-suite on the Crown for a 12 night British Isles Cruise. I had the sofa and had no complaints at all. Granted it was not my bed at home, but I've had much less comfortable accommodations in a few hotels. We're taking another Crown cruise in September - again sharing a mini-suite.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
